  • Mercury up Close
    Volume 28 - Issue 12 :: Jun. 04-17, 2011 INDIA'S NATIONAL MAGAZINE from the publishers of THE HINDU SPACE Mercury up close AMALENDU BANDYOPADHYAY When MESSENGER, launched by NASA, began orbiting Mercury on March 18, it became the first spacecraft to do so. The deep, terracedcrater Camoes, named after the Portuguese poet Luiz Vaz de Camoes. THE planet Mercury has been somewhat neglected during the exploration of the solar system. It is the only planet within three billion kilometres of the earth not to have been orbited by a spacecraft until recently, and with good reason, for Mercury is a tricky place for a spacecraft to visit. The main stumbling block is that reaching Mercury requires a complex trajectory designed to decelerate a spacecraft. Until now, the only spacecraft to have achieved this feat, which was a monument to human ingenuity, was Mariner 10. It flew past Mercury three times between March 1974 and March 1975. Orbital mechanics meant that each time the same hemisphere was on view, and so only 45 per cent of Mercury's surface has been studied up close. Mariner 10 may have laid the foundations, but the complete mapping of Mercury and a full understanding of the planet's past remains an unfinished project. The workhorse for this endeavour is a spacecraft named MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging). Launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) of the United States in August 2004, MESSENGER lowered its velocity using a close fly-by of the earth followed by two of Venus and is currently orbiting around Mercury.
